day fifteen: favorite origin story
as much as i love harohapi and the other bands, this would have to go the pasupare!!!
ok i know i skipped days 13 and 14 but thats because,,, i really cant yell about goya no machiawase and passionate anthem again
anyway although harohapi always holds a special place in my heart, i adore paspals origin story the most. imo it fit together really well and it just warms my heart when i think about it even more
they started off as a group of strangers not even knowing each other. aya was in her third (otherwise known as final) year of idol-in-training, desperate and hanging onto every thread she could grasp for just a chance at making her debut. pasupare was really the door to her dreams and she barely flew through. this was ayas life work, basically. then there was chisato, a childhood actress who held an excellent poker face and mask to emotions. friendship had never really registered for her, and her heart was left isolated because nobody valued her for chisato shirasagi, and people only saw her as the famous actress that appeared on tv. pastel palettes was not chisatos dream job per se, but it was a new gateway that she was willing to pursue albeit hesitantly. chisato wanted to find something that would really make her happy- and an idol band may welcome her to a new group of friends. theres eve, a model who did not truly belong to japan and hailed from finland. eve tried all she could to belong in her new country and immersed herself in japanese culture, striving to truly become japanese and thus her core was built: bushido, the way of a truthful warrior. pastel palettes was yet another path for eve, and she was ready to display herself as an idol for the rest of japan, and she dreamed of inspiring others in her new home. theres also hina, a part of a pair that was slowly separating and there was nothing she could do. hinas own twin sister started to drift away, becoming more hostile even, as she picked up new hobbies more and more until hinas sister settled on the guitar. with all her heart, hina wanted to make her sister proud, to be close with her sister again, so she picked up guitar and auditioned for really /anything/ so she could have another similarity with her sibling. pastel palettes was hinas chance to "prove" to her sister that she could be like her, and she was craving for another chance to make her sister see that hina was worthy of looking at. she was unaware of all the inferiority bubbling inside of her sister that hina almost destroyed their bond trying to impress her twin, and she just wanted another chance. finally theres maya, your everyday background character, as portrayed. she was nothing but a "support member", intended to be just a placeholder before the staff found a "real idol" to take her place. always criticized for her plain looks and 'nerdy' passion for technical equipment, maya has always been considered a backstage girl, but there she was in the spotlight, without her glasses, in a frilly idol costume. she considered herself a boring girl yet now she was surrounded by such supportive girls, one who even told maya that she was beautiful and was worthy of pasupare. pastel palettes was mayas first chance to show herself instead of being cooped away as the placeholder, and she was willing to let people see her, too. she was ready to become a part of pasupare, a soon-to-be popular idol band and wanted to show people what she could accomplish.
these five girls banded together through thick and thin, even when their 'secret' was discovered. aya and chisato stood in the pouring rain, despite their difference, to sell tickets and promote their now honest fame. together, they all did their best to learn their instruments so they could truly present themselves as pastel palettes. at each others sides, they realize being an idol was not as cutesy as they seemed, but they all persevered. because everything they worked for was for their dream, each of their individual goals. they could not throw it away. together, they all come to terms that they are idols in their own way, no matter how bumpy the road was or may be. pasupare's story is one of perseverance and friendship through technical difficulties and personal ones, and is really a deep story about accepting who they are and being proud of it, no matter how people reacted. they will always shine, once again, luminous.

All of Poppin'Party's new Summer voicelines on the International version!
Arisa refused to show up at the end. I went and said "Arisa, I love you!" and she actually showed up. Good thing I'm wasn't lying.

ehh double posting...
When I first heard about seasonal convos a while ago, I had no clue what they meant since I couldn't see any. With the summer update...
Oh jeez, there's so much more. Yeah, I understand what they meant by seasonal convos now.
It also makes me want to compile all the new lines. One post per band. I really don't want to but I also really want to.
AHHHHHH I HATE DECISIONS
If demand is high, I'll do it. If not, I'll still probably do it.
It's actually 3 new lines per character. I've already got all of PoPiPa's lines.
